Thank you for your response,

I remember seeing that video a few months ago but I can't locate it now. I'm having a hard time finding fire resistant foam or sponges on the internet.  I came across a few sprays you spray on the materials and some sort of Fire ball to mount above them maybe.  On Amazon I saw someone who had one above some Antminers

Any issue using MDF as my little miner box I built? Temps are not over 85, wood doesn't feel hot or anything like that just wandered if I should have used a metal shelf just in case something were to go crazy.  before this I was using the cooler mod when I only had one S9
 
I guess no matter what a fire would be fire just curious a few expert thoughts

I don't think Bitmain is hurting for money, but I could be wrong.  More people than not say they mine with the hardware and release it to the public once they kill the rate and make money off of them.  I wonder if they do mine on all the machines if there profit is based on the coins they mined or is the 3-4 billion in profit from straight sales? 

 This article from cointelegraph.com (maybe reliable, maybe not) says
"the four-year-old Bitmain reportedly made between $3 and $4 billion in operating profit in 2017, whereas Nvidia, founded 24 years ago, made about $3 billion during the same period. "

Defiantly agree with you ccgllc -  at those watts +/-  its very minimal $1-2 dollars year difference and for we all know there could just be errors on the spec pages or just #'s.

A lot of speculation on a new Antminer on the way so could be cleaning house... Talk of an S11 on the way for quite sometime now.

A few watt differences in more efficient as they use less wattage/miner than the S9s.

Antminer S9 14 TH/s = 1340 Watts

Antminer S9i 14 TH/s = 1320 Watts

Antminer S9 13.5 TH/s = 1320 Watts

Antminer S9i 13.5 TH/s = 1310 Watts

Antminer S9 13 TH/s = 1300 Watts

Antminer S9i 13 TH/s = 1290 Watts


Could be a way not to piss many people off who just paid a lot more a few weeks ago for the same miners - who knows.

Thanks BTCro, I changed mine but only can do the basic one I guess!

Not much, but added another S9 today. Going to be interesting when summer really hits here in Texas!   
Current temps are high of 76  on one, and 84 another. Need some more 6 inch duct to bring the 84 down to in the 70's!

Now lets gets some freakin BTCLOCKS BTCABY!!!

Here's mine.  USD it's about $9-11
The pool N average your asking for is higher than what I'm showing so that will play a role in your payout as well.

Roughly around 5.5 to 6 days I think

Yeah what Shazam!!! said!!  Time for BTCig BTClock weekend!

Also where's Scooby been? I need some bonus hash!

I believe these are the others I know . KANO please correct me if I'm wrong and I will edit my list!



There are other nodes located around the world that you may be closer to:
stratum+tcp://nya.kano.is:3333 (NewYork)
stratum+tcp://sg.kano.is:3333 . (Singapore)
stratum+tcp://nl.kano.is:3333 (Netherlands)
stratum+tcp://de.kano.is:3333 (Germany)
stratum+tcp://jp.kano.is:3333 (Japan)

As with the main stratum node, each of those nodes allows mining to port 3333, 80, 81, 443 and 8080

FINALLY!  Thank you Sidewinder for the block!

I thought I would check here before going to fleabay... I'm looking for a $400 bitmain coupon to get another S9&PSU for kano. Kindly let me know if anyone has one to sell!

I'm at 12th's, but it feels like dust haha!  Trying to get another S9 ordered soon to add to the KANO POWER!

haha I just checked mine thinking it would be my lucky day but no dice here! haha Enjoy! 

Even though I don't have much hash power, I'm glad I found Kano. I've had questions and everyone has been incredibly helpful and for it being the internet - that's a pretty rare thing these days.  Thanks again to everyone who contributes and makes Kano a great community of miners.  Now lets get sit back and let the BTCocks rain down!

BTClock!  thanks zurabtc!!  Nice job getting on the board!

Same here no failover USA

I was wrong, I have 240 wired up so I'm good to go to add another S9!

Thanks for the input on the 16T good to know as I'm only interested in mining on Kano!
